Storytelling event of Cycling Africa

Unlocking Untold Stories of Africa ​An Exclusive Live Multimedia Evening with Kamran Ali (Kamran on Bike) ​Former Technologist, Researcher, Ph.D. turned global cyclist, Kamran Ali (@KamranOnBike) has pedaled over 50,000 miles across five continents and 80 countries on a single bicycle from the southern tip of Patagonia to the Arctic Circle, and through the remote corridors of Central Asia. Renowned for his work featured on National Geographic, BBC, and TEDx, Kamran pairs large-format photography with acoustic field soundscapes to explore human endurance, solitude, and the spiritual threads that unite diverse cultures. ​The Presentation: Unlocking Untold Stories of Africa ​This weekend, Kamran shares an intimate, unfiltered look into his journeys across the African continent. Transcending conventional travel narratives, this presentation centers on the vulnerable, overlooked communities he encountered along the road. Through immersive visuals and personal field accounts, Kamran documents the daily realities of people facing severe adversity, reflecting on human dignity, reliance, hospitality from the poorest among us, and the quiet resilience found in the world's most neglected corners. ​A Purely Humanitarian Mission ​This tour is organized strictly as a humanitarian effort. Kamran accepts zero personal speaking fees, honorariums, or reimbursement for lodging and travel. His sole objective is to give voice to communities in acute crisis and mobilize direct relief to provide them with basic daily necessities and life-saving medical supplies. Every dollar raised through this event goes directly toward supporting these underserved populations.
